Kindergarten Round-Up Announced for Southwood and Metro North Elementary Schools

Wabash, IN: MSD of Wabash County is ready to welcome the Class of 2035! Children
who will be at least five years of age on or before August 1, 2022 are eligible to
participate in kindergarten for the 2022-2023 school year. To begin the journey into
kindergarten, it is very important for the incoming kindergartener to attend Kindergarten
Round-up.
This year’s Kindergarten Round-Ups will take place at the elementary
schools. Southwood Elementary will host their Round-Up on Wednesday, March 9,
and Metro North Elementary will hold theirs on Thursday, March 10. 
Families are highly encouraged to register for Kindergarten Round-Up no later
than March 7. Registration links can be found at www.msdwc.org or by contacting the
elementary school.
To accommodate social distancing, families will be assigned an arrival time based on
their availability. Guests should be limited to only one or two adult guardians with the
child. Guardians should bring a copy of the child’s official birth certificate and
vaccination records with them to Kindergarten Round-Up.
During Round-Up, families will have the opportunity to explore the classrooms, interact
with teachers, and complete a readiness screening. Health services such as eye
exams, dental checks, and vaccinations will not be offered during Round-Up this year.
As parents navigate the important decision of where to send their child to school, the
staff of MSD of Wabash County want to help. They encourage parents who are unsure
if an MSDWC school is the right choice for their family to reach out. The Southwood and
Metro North staff would be honored to provide information, answer questions, and even
give individual tours of the school. Please connect with the school staff and let them
know how they can journey with you through this important transitional stage.
